That was a long run.  I forgot what it was like to run for almost three hours.  I felt really stiff for the first two miles, but after warming up I felt great.  The weather was beautiful this morning before the clouds came in.  I did three loops, 2 eight mile loops and one seven mile.  It definitely felt long when I made the turn after sixteen and still had seven to go.  But the marathon is longer still, so a long run like this is good every once in while.  I think this was the longest training run I've ever done, and I'll probably only do one more this long in this cycle.  The last seven were easily down under 7 minute pace and the total time was @ 2:46.

Total for the week: 70 (Not bad for a six day week!)
         for the  year: 142
